The public vote at this year's German Game Developer Award has gone to the free-to-play Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) Runes of Magic, with the game lifting the trophy in the category of 'Best International PC Game 2009'. Players from all across Germany were summoned to vote in the public ballot for their favourite games of 2009, and within the category of 'Best International PC Game 2009', Runes of Magic found itself having to battle it out with titles such as Risen and Anno 1404.
Gameforge wants to maintain a level playing field for users and mitigate any P2W elements that may disrupt the integrity of Runes of Magic.
A lot has happened in gaming, especially free-to-play gaming, over the last decade. Nobody could predict just how prevalent it’s become, and how some of the biggest games on the planet – League of Legends, Fortnite: Battle Royale, World of Tanks, and more – are all free-to-play.
Gameforge — the leading publisher of popular free-to-play multiplayer online games including Guardians of Ember, SoulWorker, Aion, and Metin2 — celebrates the 10th anniversary of renowned developer Runewaker’s popular free-to-play MMORPG, Runes of Magic on March 19.
